QM 6 leg wear question

as the clutch wears down, does the pedal effort get softer? or does the engagement point rise? besides lockouts, are there signs of the clutch on its way out? i've tried flooring it in 4th/5th at low rpms and the revs haven't shot up, nor have i experienced any lockouts (yet).

the clutch currently has around 10k miles since the rebuild (with hub mod) so i'm starting to worry about having to rebuild soon again. i'm super paranoid because the prior rebuild lasted me around 6k miles even with the hub mod (previous owned claimed 4k miles usage and the clutch started slipping at 6k miles)

The QM clutch increases pressure as it wears due to the spring design. I think the engagement point actually drops as it wears also, due to the TOB needing to move further to disengage.
